One of the most popular peaks to climb is Geita (the Goat) at the top of Mount Fløyen just behind Solvær. This is the most famous peak on Lofoten because of its appearance resembling a goat but also because it’s one of the highest. Climbing Geita is a real challenge, especially the last part which is steep and demanding. When reaching the top, some take on the challenge of jumping from one “horn” of the goat to the other, a stunt which I do not encourage. Just climbing to the base of Geita, where you’ll get a great view of Solvær and the Vestfjord, can be rewarding enough.
